Menu Label Element only accepts Legacy Texts.
Hello, I'm having an issue where the Linked Text only accepts Legacy Text and not TMPro Text. Is there a way to set it to also accept Texts from TMPro?

In recent versions, it's a case of checking Use TMPro components? in the Menu's properties.
Pre-v1.80, however, you need to manually add "TextMeshProIsPresent" as a Scripting Define Symbol.
Alright, I checked the Scripting Define Symbols in the Player Settings under Player, but the issue still persists and Linked Text: still cant hold Text from TMPro. How do I solve this issue?

That should be enough. No hidden spaces in the symbol box?
In a backup/duplicate project, try importing the latest release.
Ok, fortunately I do have a backup project that has a Linked Text: that accepts TMPro Text. When you say "try importing the latest release" does it mean to just get the latest version of Adventure Creator? If so, then I can't because updating it to the new version would mess up the current build.
Yes - though it was more to check that it worked in a duplicate project more than anything.
What is the state of the backup project? Did you also add the define symbol to that, in order to get it to allow TMPro Text objects?
Alright, I resolved the issue by having a backup project before this issue came about and replaced the one that has the issue with the one that doesn't. Yes, my backup project also includes that define symbol. Thank you for your help!
